"I saw a lion he was standing alone
With a tadpole in a jar"

Too easy...

Led Zeppelin - Dancing Days

Dancing days are here again as the summer evenings grow
I got my flower, I got my power, I got a woman who knows.

*CHORUS
I said it's alright. You know it's alright - I guess it's all in my heart

You'll be my only, my one and only. Is that the way it should start?

Crazy ways are evident, In the way that you're wearing your clothes
Sippin'' booze is precedent as the evening starts to glow.

CHORUS

I told your mamma I'd get you home but I didn't tell her I had no car
I saw a lion he was standing alone with a tadpole in a jar.

CHORUS

Dancing days are here again as the summer evening grows
You are my flower, you are my power
You are my woman who knows.

CHORUS


Next:

So! Where the hell was Biggles when you needed him last Saturday?
And where were all the sportsmen who always pulled you though?
They're all resting down in Cornwall
writing up their memoirs for a paper-back edition
of the Boy Scout Manual.

I had to goggle that one...I think it will stand for awhile

Sounds like Elton John

Correct nationality, wrong performer!

I believe it's Jethro Tull only because my old rocker friend was drunk one night a few weeks ago telling me about Biggles = Biggins etc. and played the song. I barely noticed or paid attention. Very random that I remembered that, but who knows if I'm anywhere close...

Absolutely Biggins!

from the Album Thick as a Brick

I'da never gotten it.

Something easier now:

"He's got a long wick with a flame at both ends. He's hot."

No, it's not Yos!

Hold the phone you cheaters! No fair! Do over! I WASN'T READY.





Move over, music and trivia are my things.

I will own you. You cheaters will google anyway.

I know this one Elton John The B*&%# is back Just Kiddin Heather!!!

I love Elton. His only fault is that he doesn't wear a unitard.

I actually like him too. one of my favorite movies "Tommy" He made the perfect Pinball Wizard. 3 Ft. high sneakers

uh, oh.

Good one Gman!

j/k too, Heather.

I love the "guess the song thread"!

Ive got one sticking along the same lines.
All you Zep fans should know this. And NO Sir Elton never sang this to my knowledge



"Changes fill my time
Baby, that's all right with me
In the midst I think of you
And how it used to be"


Who can noodle or google this one first

Hey, ya gotta answer Snoopy's first.

My suggestion for this topic.

The poster who answers the previous question correctly, gets to put the next lyrics out here. Waddaya say?

Don't cheat if you do don't post the answer

I agree.... stick too the rules

actually Biggins answered yours Yoss so it's Biggins turn...

Retroactive rules!? (Whine...)

If I would have known the rules I would have. disregard mine until I can figure out Snoopys...And the next one will be tougher

Robert Plant?

No, not Plant. Okay, so this doesn't take forever, I say the poster has the option to provide clues. Here is one: The band was named after a motor vehicle. (And it was a popular, probably top 10 song).

From the car clue...

REO Speedwagon and the only song I can think of (and it's painful to do so) is time for me to fly.

Half right.

More lyrics -- same song: "So you figure that you got him all figured out. He's a sweet talkin' stud who can melt a girl's heart with his pout."

Question to the group: Should the songs be limited to top 40 of their genre? After all, anyone can pick an esoteric side B from a band and stump anyone but Google.

Should be kinda mainstream...I could pull some punk rock that would stump goggle.

Alright BMIC you REO Speedwagon groupie finish this off...

REO "Don't let him go" and I was not a fan of the band but my girlfriend was

Next Song : change of music.. Country
I went down to the river to wacth the fish swim bye.

GMAN got it.

I liked REO -- especially when the original band was together -- Gary Richrath played a mean guitar. Next, GMAN?

Country is not my main thing, but I'll take a wild guess:; "Way down yonder on the Chata hoochie"?

liar

Again.. change of music.. Country
I went down to the river to watch the fish swim Bye! I went down to the river so lonesome I wanted to die.

I'm all for anything that has to do with a "Hoochie" but your not close

keep singin' I have no clue...

I went to jump in the river but the doggone river was dry.

This should help you.. older country singer , his son also sings

Hank Sr. I'm so lonesome I could cry??

Hank Sr. is correct.. but the title is wrong.. keep trying your close

You guys are killin' me. I dislike country.


My guess: Hank Sr. - I've got a tear in my beer and I'm cryin' for ya dear.

I'm finished on this one. DOn't know much Hank stuff -- only guessed it was him by your hint.

next clue: not short... never coming back... all alone.... sad... Here you go it's the title but read between the lines.

Long Gone Lonesome

whats the last word mel. close enough "Long Gone Lonesome Blue"

"Blue"

Stupid trigger finger.

Right Snoopy?

Hey i just noticed I made it over 200 Woooo Hoooo

So it's my turn now, right? Hmm... here's an easy one:

"I've had my fun and now it's time to serve your conscience overseas"
